Mice i'm His Pocket
st. Paul Globe.

Everybody has heard Daniel Web
ster's story of the New Hampshire par
son who put on pair of pants in which
the wasps had built nest and did not
make the discovery until he was in the
the pulpit. He had just announced
the beginning of the text, ''The spirit
of the Lord is in my mouth" when
the pesky little fellows got in their
work, and the sentence was concluded
with the exclamation, "and the devil is
in my breeches !"
A St. Paul clergyman found himself
in nearly an embarrassing a position as
the New Hampshire parson recently
when he appeared in the pulpit wearing
pair of fall trousers which had been
hanging in wardrobe during the warm
summer vacation. The wasps had not
found them out, but motherly old
mouse ShA-~hr.a PrucN1r gs- TIC
right hand pocket of the trousers, into
which an even half-dozen of one-day
old miclets had been tucked away. 1t
is favorite gesture of the clergyman
in question when about to approach a
climax in the sermon to thrust his right
hand in, his trouser pocket and elevate
the left with the fore-fnger extended.
1t SO happened that on this particu-
lar day that Elijah's translation was the
theme. The good prophet had been
followed by the eloquent preacher until
the climax of the ascension in the char
lot of fire was reached, when the cler-
gyman thrust his right hand into his
trousers pocket. The audience, who
had been hanging on to the burning
words of the orator, were no little
startled by the sudden collapse of the
uplifted left hand, the index finger of
which was in the act of pointing to the
gates that were being lifted up to let
the prophet in. The expression of a
momentary pang shot across the
preachers face as with a convulsive
jerk the other hand was brought up
from the pocket. A glance at its con-
tents, a quick squeezing together of
the hand, the light thud of something
dropping behind the pulpit, an amused
smile on the face for a second and then
the glowing theme was resumed
Only those who sat on the front row
in the amen corner heard what the
preacher said when he discovered the
mice in his hand. 'Well I'll be dog
goned |" was sufficient.

He sat beside her near the stove,
prey to bashfulness;
To her he spoke no words of love,
Nor sought her hand to press.
No maiden ever had been wooed
By him; the fact was plain,
For silently he sat and chewed
The knob upon his cane.
Sometimes he at the ceiling gazed,
Sometimes his glance would stray
To her, but when her eyes she raised,
He looked another way.
And thus they silent sat till she
Said: "JohD, ought to state
That pa and ma are out to tea,
And won't return till late.
"Now, while they're absent, do not tease,
But pray remember this:
Ny hand you must not try to squeeze,
Nor steal from me kiss"
At once the knob that graced his cane
John from his mouth withdrew,
And said, ~ won't; don't think, Miss Jane,
That I'd do that to you"
A deeper silence then ensued
John vigorously his canes KhUp cneweu,-
A frown James visage wore.
And thus they sat till half-past ten,
And when John rose to go,
And asked if he might call again,
Jane curtly answered, "Nop

Easy Places.

1t seems nothing but natural, says the
editor of the 81. Louis Miller, for every
person, man or woman, to think the
position they occupy is just a little bit
worse than that of any one else. And
they imagine that if they could only
exchange places with some one else,
what relief it would be. Much of the
worry and fretting in life is caused by
desire to secure an easy place.
Success is only obtained by earnest
effort. And this implies hard work of
some kind. And when you are doing
hard work, you certainly cannot be con-
sidered as having found an easy place.
1t is those who do not make a success
that are always on the lookout or hunt
for an easy place. And after they ind
themselves in positions where little
earnest effort would considerably inn
prove their conditions, rather than
make the effort they allow themselves
to rnakc an easy place Tor their indivi-
dual comfort, and let the chance slip
Many a young man, in an effort to find
an easy place, has allowed opportuni-
ties to pass by which, if he would have
taken them up and added few years
of hard, well-directed labor, would
have placed him in a condition where,
if he desired, he might take upon him.
self an easy place.
One item should by no means be
overlooked in this, and that is that
many places are like the ones you are
occupying, that is, they are very de-
ceiving. Others imagine that you are
having very easy time as compared
with theirs, and they would gladly ex-
change with you, while at the same
time you are thinking the same with
them.
We often make our lot in life not
only harder, but considerably worse
than it really is, by continually looking
at the dark side. We try to see all the
drawbacks rather than trying to better
our condition all the while, and this at
least adds nothing to it. The fact is,
if life were all sunshine, if we all secur-
ed what we might consider as easy
places, it is very doubtful if we would
appreciate it as fully as we do our pres
ent blessings. Better wear out than
rust out. Life can be made much pleas
anter if we would try to make the best
of everything, and then when we are
able to better ourselves, we are in
condition to enjoy better. 1t is an i'm
possibility that each and every one of
US should be able to secure place that
we might consider as easy. Added to
this is the fact that much that we see is
deceiving, and that if we fail to find
what we are seeking in making change,
we are only breeding discomfort instead
of bettering ourselves.
1t is certainly to the interest of every
man to better himself or his condition
when he can do so honestly. This is
what, to certain extent, we are all
aiming to accomplish, but we will not
be able to reach this if, instead of earn
to seeking out and obtaining an easy
place.

One of the most delightful trips we
ever enjoyed on rail road was the one
we had Wednesday in going to and re-
turning from Hendersonville in the ele-
CANT new Observation car now run re
gularly between Ashevilia and Spartan
burg. The rail road authorities are to be
thanked for this comfortable provision
for the travelling putlic.
There is a settlement or colony in
Henderson county which has become
little known, yet which is destined we
think to have marked influence on the
future of that county. 1t is composed of
Eng, ,ishmen, the head of seven or eight
families, men, not of wealth, but of in
dependent means, of energy, intelligence
and education, with lively interest in the
land of their adoption, not obtrnsive in
thrusting their views and modes upon
the people amo' e whom they live, adap-
ting themselves with practical good serse
to their environments, and at the same
time pursuing their own systems with
energy and perseverance.
The settlement is along Willow Greek,
extending 10 the month of that stream,
and up and down il, also embracing some

Terrible Mill Explosion.

[By telegraph to the AsheviIe Citizen.l
CHATTANOOGA, July 21.-At the
Roaue Iron Co.'S. steel mill this
morning the fly wheel of the Mann
moth engine, working blooming
rolls bursted and tore up the roof of
the mill, fortunately not injuring
the machinery much. Engineer
Hard and another workman were
sleeping under TIE shed when the
explosion occurred and wero buried
under the debris of the roof. Hard
was killed instantly. and the other
man was seriously hurt. The wheel
was 20 feet in diameter aud weighed
20 tons, and singular enough but
littl damage was done the mill
save breaking the wheel asid roof
The loss will be about 5000 and
delay of three to four weeks in work
will be occasioned. The mill was
beginning to work double turn, and
600 hands will be thrown out Of
employment temporarily until the
mill is repaired.
